...expansion of his jurisdiction. Neither Monica Lewinsky nor President Clinton had made any statements under oath in the Jones case (at least that had been filed with any court) when Linda Tripp approached the OIC on January 12. The only evidence the OIC possessed at that time were tapes illegally created by Tripp. The OIC itself proceeded to tape the Tuesday, January 13 conversation between Tripp and Lewinsky. Ms. Lewinsky's affidavit was not filed in the Jones case until January 16, and the OIC had petitioned the Attorney General the day before for an expansion of the authority based...
WASHINGTON: Four and a half hours later, are we any the wiser? For anyone seeking a smoking gun or salacious new details in the Lewinsky case, President Clinton's grand jury testimony tape was distinctly disappointing. Indeed, very little of what the President said -- from his definition of sex in the Paula Jones case to his defense of the gifts he gave Lewinsky -- could not be read or inferred from the 445-page Starr report. What had remained unseen, until Monday, was the way it was delivered. And while his text amounted to hairsplitting and none-too-subtle filibustering, Clinton...
...where was that famous Clinton temper? Reports of presidential pique, it seems, were somewhat exaggerated. The witness remained controlled, if not entirely calm, throughout. And that may leave GOP members of the House Judiciary committee wondering if they weren't suckered into rushing the tape out with more fanfare than they intended.

That may backfire politically; on the other hand, many viewers may simply write the whole video episode off as an inevitable, unwatchable anticlimax. As one Clinton aide joked: "Only a roomful...
...enough to her earn her a passing grade. In 1993, when her lawsuit was first filed, the Bar permitted her to take the exam with the accommodations she requested--on the condition that the results would be withheld until the court issued its judgment. Afforded extra time, provided with tape recorders and freed from that pesky answer sheet, Bartlett failed for the fifth consecutive time. Rest assured, she will try again...
...partisan wrangling in Congress delayed the video's release until first thing Monday morning -- when office surfers will once again have access to their employers' T-1 connections. Hopefully, cable TV will be able to take some of the strain. CNN, Fox and MSNBC all plan to run the tape unedited and unabridged, just as soon as they get the feed. The big three TV networks were still undecided Friday, but it's quite possible that Monday's regular programming will be ditched in favor of the President trying to duck explicit sex questions. It's also possible that millions...
